Beatable Cars

This may have been covered, but did a search and didnt find what i wanted.

If someone could make a list of cars that are beatable by the wrx from a 0-60 stop, and 1/4 mile stop that would be awesome. I am looking for this only because , then when some kid pulls up to me at a light, if i know my car is faster, no need to try and be macho and do something stupid.

You should rape a Eclipse GT or GTS from the dig. From a roll it should be about even. Unless they have a RIPPS SC on it.

A 1g or 2g Eclipse will take you if it has mods. There are to many variables when it comes to racing. Your best bet is to start modding the WRX. Get upipe and TBE. Get some EM and new turbo then you can have less worries about being beat. A stock WRX is far from fast.

haha alright. I guess maybe im approaching this all wrong. Lets take into consideration like all around how the car is compared to the cars in its price range. Ya i know a 70K benz will be alot faster, and it should be. But im talking cars under 30K like, ya the str4 is faster, but what about handling. And how about like civics with exhauast and lowered. We are still faster, and i would assume handle aton better.

If you want to put it that way, then there are a butt load of cars that CAN be made faster...Just buy an old beater for 1K, and drop a 700HP GM crate motor into it....

Any Disel pick up with ECU and after market performance modifications. I have seen some pull 11's at the track with the stock turbo. A Dodge omni glh with basic BPU's. Modified SVO mustang or even the new dodge magnum station wagon and chrysler 300 C with the Hemmi.

I see what you are saying. Most of what you are going to encounter is very easy prey for the WRX. Most people who are willing to race on the street are younger and do not have that much cash to buy a fast car. A lot of what you will see are ricers. It never gets old schooling them. 99% of them are all show and no go. Watch out for that 1% though. Beware of American V8's. The ones out of the 80's are dog slow unless modified. Off the line with a 5k launch there is not much that will take you. EVO, STI, and various other high powered AWD cars will.
